Be Green When You Clean
I have been reading Chester’s Clean House this last week as they have been posting about the dangers of cleaning products. I had no idea how many children are poisoned each year by ordinary household chemicals. I remember reading that anti-freeze was a huge killer of kids becuase they liked the bright green color and it tasted like kool-aid. I know that they passed a law so that they had to add something to it to make it taste bad.
Another topic over there has been the environmental impact of cleaners and the health risks involved in the use of cleaning products. I just read that women that stay home are more likely to get cancer becuase the air quality in the average home is so bad. Those glad plugins put out so much junk and we just keep breathing it.
You can read a sumarry of what they found. It really made me think about how I should be cleaning my house, not only for the environment but for my health.
